Lenovo ThinkCentre M57 Seagate ST3500820AS HDD (Bootable CD) Firmware LV13
Manufacturer: Seagate
Date: Jun 1, 2012
Seagate has recently informed Lenovo of two issues that affect the firmware on certain Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 SATA hard disk drives. The two drive families are used by Lenovo on Desktop and Workstation branded systems. Seagate has described the two firmware issues as follows:
- A firmware issue that may result in data becoming inaccessible after a power-off/on operation.
- A firmware issue where operating with write cache enabled and issuing Write, Read Verify, and Read commands in the same LBA range can cause a Read command to return old data.
Lenovo believes that the probability of a customer seeing either of these two firmware issues is extremely low. That being said, Lenovo and Seagate have decided to release a firmware.

It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.
Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
